BGS College Football Power Ratings through Week 7

Updated BGS College Football Power Ratings through games October 17th.

The BGS Power Ratings (aka, The Oddsmakers Bible) are the most accurate Ratings in existence for the purposes of predicting game outcomes.

To use the Ratings, simply subtract the home teams Home-Rating from the visting teams Away-Rating. The resulting integer would be assigned to the home team as a pointspread and would reflect the predicted MARGIN of VICTORY.

For example, using the below Ratings in relation to the UCONN @ West Virginia game this weekend;

Subtract the West Virginia Home Rating of 80 from UCONN's Away-Rating of 74

(74 - 80 = -6)

The resulting pointspread of -6 is assigned to the home team, West Virginia

West Virginia -6

Conclusion: West Virginia should win this game by 6 points
